Chapter 106
Aurora
My excitement vanished like a blown-out candle as reality hit me hard.
I was alone. There was no one willing to assist me in my mission.
I had no friends.
Who would even want to associate themselves with a cheat, an infidel, and a liar?
The eagerness I felt earlier flushed out of my body, making me moody.
Tears gathered around my eyes as doubt started to cloud my mind.
I couldn’t embark on this mission all alone, it was too risky for me. I didn’t even know how many days I had left to stay in the castle. All I knew was my days were numbered as Damon wouldn’t stop looking at me like I was filthy.
He only accepted me because I reunited him with his brothers. I was certain that immediately after his brothers were nursed back to health, I would leave forever.
The scary thought kept me awake all night, but I knew it would soon become a reality though it was a hard pill to swallow.
I couldn’t expect Devin and Dax to pick me over royalty and his brother.
Damon was family…I am but a mere property.
Did I just say property?
My lips twitched bitterly as sadness started to creep into me.
I ceased to become his property the day he caught me in bed with another man.
I heaved a worried sigh as my face contorted in sadness.
Maybe it was time I accepted my fate and chose family over the devilishly handsome triplets.
It was time I wrapped my arms around the warmth of my parents.
No doubt, I missed them like crazy. I wondered how they were coping without me. I couldn’t imagine the grief they go through daily…especially my mother.
It was like I could see her blaming and cursing herself and my father for not fleeing to her parents’ pack when they had the chance.
It was my fault. I brought this upon them. If I hadn’t tried so hard to come up with a solution, we would have been one happy family.
But I messed up. I was a bad daughter.
I hope they were ready to accept me because I was coming for them.
With a stabbing pain in my heart, I scanned my environment, giving it a final look as I made the toughest decisions of my life.
Devin and Dax wouldn’t need to fulfill the urge to repay the favour. There was no need to choose between their identity and me.
Damon wouldn’t need to deal with seeing my face again. He could be with his mistress and fulfill her weird sexual cravings for all I care. Rosa and her uncle could finally feel less pressured by my presence as I wouldn’t be perceived to be a competition. At least, my life won’t be in danger anymore.
Karma would certainly catch up on Ray for framing me.
I wish everyone the very best.
Despite accepting the reality, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
The idea of leaving before dawn wasn’t sitting well with me.
Was I overreacting or was it the right decision?
Loneliness and confusion cloaked me like a garment.
I needed someone to talk to badly as I didn’t want to make another huge mistake.
It confused me how my mind was ready to leave the castle but my body was reluctant.
I strode to the window, resting my head on it before grabbing a fistful of my hair in confusion.
Maybe I should wait until Devin and Dax have recovered before I leave?
Speaking of Devin and Dax.
A fleeting excitement shot through me, making me raise my head as ideas ran through it.
Since they wanted to return the favour badly, what if they were able to help me find the culprit who framed me?
I reluctantly discarded the idea before rolling my eyes and hissing.
No option was working.
It was best I leave and never return.
Though the triplets’ absence would create a vacuum in my heart, I would live with that for the rest of my miserable life.
My jaws clenched in anger as my eyes swept through the garden in one glance.
Molten anger filled my veins as my eyes rested on the spot where Damon and I made out.

I felt my heart squeezing in a stabbing pain.
I hated that the last time it happened was the end. I wanted more from the triple, but it was never going to happen again.
My memory didn’t help matter as the heated moment kept replaying in my head, making me feel flushed.
Good thing I enjoyed it while it lasted.
It’s high time I left for home.
“Your home is here, Aurora.” A calm voice echoed in my head.
I made a quick U-turn to check if someone was beside me but there was no one.
The voice sounded familiar, but it’s been a long time since I heard it.
I was certain it didn’t come from my surroundings, but…my head.
Wait a minute…my head!
My eyes sparkled with excitement and a smile formed on my lips.
I wasn’t alone!
“Rue? Is that you, Rue?” I asked tenderly.
“I’m here,” she replied, but her voice was distant. I could feel her from deep chambers in my head.
“Why have you been silent?” I asked in an accusing tone.
I groaned in dissatisfaction at my wolf.
The last time she spoke to me was when I shifted before Nathalia. She wasn’t there when I needed her.
I missed her shiny shinning fur, I couldn’t wait to run my paws on it. I missed her company and her reassuring words.
“Because it’s not the right time,” she replied weakly, but in a firm voice. “One of our mates is not ready to accept us.”
Mate? Maybe I wasn’t hearing her clearly.
“What do I do, Rue?” I asked, dropping my hands by my sides in confusion. “I am literally out of options”
“The castle is your home and the triplets are yours. You don’t want to give your rightful position to someone else,” she advised, leaving me confused.
The triplets are mine and the castle was my home? But I wasn’t welcomed.
I tried making sense of her words again, but it wasn’t adding up.
The only way the triplets would be mine and the castle would be my home was if I was Luna, but I was a slave and it was rare to have three mates at once.
I sighed worried as I dismissed Rue’s words.
“Are you sure you are alright, Rue?”
“Trust your instincts, Aurora,” she said firmly before disappearing into my head.
